Each week, you will work on a new personal industry portfolio project. You can choose from a curated pool of industry use cases received directly from our XR industry network.

The goal is to produce rapid prototypes that cement development skills and design concepts. This process will ensure your portfolio is relevant to the XR industry jobs that you will apply to. You may select your own project or get a recommendation from our mentors, depending on your personal career goals. Self-study, periodical check-ins, and mentorships are the major part of the prototyping course. Recommended total time spent: 20 hours per week.

Twice a week, you have a 1:1 call with your mentor and a 2-hour group mentorship session. In addition, you get access to additional portfolio project-focused learning content (i.e. focus on deployment to different hardware platforms and rapid prototyping workflows). Supplemental videos are available in our library for you to close your knowledge base gaps.

With 4 prototypes created, you will now choose which one to develop further. Pitch your favorite project to your fellow students and build a team or join another student’s MVP development sprint.

In the group, you will learn to define the scope and requirements (functional and dev work), production pipelines, and practice working in a professional dev team setup.

We recommend you spend an average of 20 hours per week working on the MVP. You can always ask questions and connect with others on slack and during co-working sessions. You will also get continuous access to the XR Foundations Course recordings to refer back to and check on course material you may need for certain aspects of the MVP.
